Active trading is usually accompanied by a heavy load on the employees of the online store. To facilitate work with the data of such sites, without the need to manually enter all stream changes into the database, the practice of synchronizing data from 1C and the online store has become popular. This process makes it possible to automate actions in the site directory and avoid many mistakes – for example, if the product is missing or the price has changed in 1C, and outdated information is displayed on the store pages.
The very process of synchronization with 1C is an update, after which the product data transferred from the 1C database to the server database will be displayed taking into account the latest changes that have occurred - new indicators of price, color, quantity, etc.
Synchronization involves the operation of both databases, managed by different systems, and after the changes that have occurred in both databases, new data will be displayed, as they are automatically updated thanks to synchronization.
What does site integration in 1C mean?
Integration of the site with 1C can be both a one-way process - in the form of information transfer from system to system, and as a two-way exchange of data. Two exchange files are used for one-way exchange: data is entered, documents are attached, and then transferred. This principle is constantly applied – that is, you should select the necessary documents and click "execute". The main condition for such work is the presence of the following functions: Processing Loading Loading XML data.
Two-way exchange means that one part of the data is entered into 1C: Accounting, and the other - into 1C: Support. Bilateral exchange is characterized by the fact that the roles of systems can change – each can be both a source and receiver of data.
Why use 1C integration with an online store?
If the synchronization of the online store with 1C is not done or done incorrectly, then the negative consequences of this may occur not immediately, but later – for example, in the form of loss of customers, distortion of the value of goods, delay in shipment, errors in displaying the availability of products in the warehouse, etc. Therefore, it is better to entrust such a process to professionals.
Let's consider the advantages of synchronizing the online store with the 1C system.
- Accurate accounting.
After synchronizing the online store with the 1C system, the accounting process becomes clearer and easier, since the necessary actions will take place automatically, the system will be able to independently monitor expenses, revenue, product balances and transfer this information to the site. As a result – quick update in the catalog according to availability, assortment and current prices, which is very important for active sales.
- Minimum costs for employees.
For the operation of an online store with manual data processing, it is necessary to invite several employees for this, while the picture changes when integrating with 1C. After automating the main processes, it becomes easier and faster to manage the site. The quality of service will also improve, as time will be freed up to communicate with customers.
- Revenue growth of the enterprise.
The faster orders are processed and delivered, the faster buyers will return to the site. In addition, synchronization speeds up interaction with suppliers and dealers, because 1C statistics will help determine faster and more accurately what is sold better and how to manage sales more successfully.
With the 1C system, you can synchronize not one, but several stores, thereby increasing sales and reducing costs. Funds for professional synchronization of an online store with 1C usually pay off in one to two months.
